I say let's wait for the constitutional convention.
by the wat when r u sworn in and by who? we do not have a supreme court (coz we don't have constitution)
let's have a convention that will detarmen things and you and Harry will be sworn in and we'll have some order.


Probably a good idea.

I was thinking that we could have as many as their is interest in. If someone wants one of the lower ones I don't want to deny them the chance. I'll announce my choices in a few days, in the meantime, if anyone is interested in any particular position, let me know via email or IM, and then I'll consider who all is interested and then make my choices.

Will cabinet officers be approved by the Senate?

There are plenty of other good people out there and I just think that they should be out there.  I got to run for president.  I couldn't imagine anything better.  I got more than my 15 min.  So that's that.

Two things.  Number one- I don't want to run again in the summer.  I don't want to run a revenge campaign if you and Nym get to run again.  I don't want to run without Demrepdan, either.  Or if you guys don't get to run again I don't want to run a sypathy campaign.  Or even worse, I certainly don't want to become the William Jennings Bryan of the forum republicans.

Number Two- I got to run for President.  That is the apex of a career.  There is nothing better than that.  I don't want anything, else.  Don't feal bad for me or think that his is sour grapes, that's just the way I feel.

Oh, have you even taken the Pledge? Have you been Sworn In? You'd better get on the Ball and Nominate Members to the Supreme Fantasy Court. I'll twist the arms in the Senate to get your nominations through. But just remember this: I know what goes on behind 'closed doors!'
